Mohammad Shami receives support from all section
Talking about the India Pakistan match, which gave birth to a lot of hate and controversies for the Indian Pacer Mohammad Shami. He conceded 43 runs in 3.5 overs being the most expensive bowler out of all the Indian bowlers at the Dubai International Stadium, on Sunday (24 October).
After the defeat against Pakistan, Shami was brutally trolled over social media for his poor performance against Pakistan he was being called a ‘traitor.’
While people trolled team India and their players especially Mohammad Shami, many cricket greats, people, and politicians had come in support of the Indian pacer Mohammed Shami including Irfan Pathan and VVS Laxman.
When we support #TeamIndia, we support every person who represents Team India. @MdShami11 is a committed, world-class bowler. He had an off day like any other sportsperson can have.
I stand behind Shami & Team India.

Mohammed Shami has been a stellar performer for India for eight years, playing a significant role in many a victory. He can't be defined by one performance. My best wishes are always with him. I urge fans & followers of the game to support @MdShami11 and the Indian team.

355 International wickets. It is India that beats in the heart of anyone representing India. And Mohammad Shami has been an outstanding and yet unsung servant of Indian cricket. More power to him.

The online attack on Mohammad Shami is shocking and we stand by him. He is a champion and Anyone who wears the India cap has India in their hearts far more than any online mob. With you Shami. Agle match mein dikado jalwa.
